Log:
Update to the 20180503 snapshot of GCC 8.3.1.
On the way forward port r499061 | gerald | 2019-04-15 from lang/gcc8 [1]:
GCC has two runtime libraries: The static library libgcc.a (-lgcc) and
the shared library libgcc_s.so (-lgcc_s). Both implement many of the
same functions but they also each have their unique functions. When
GCC links programs and libraries there are three possibilities:
1. gcc -static-libgcc or gcc -static: -lgcc
=> Just use libgcc.a.
2. gcc -shared-libgcc: -lgcc_s -lgcc
=> Link with libgcc_s first, so libgcc.a is only used for its unique
functions.
3. gcc: -lgcc -Wl,--as-needed -lgcc_s -Wl,--no-as-needed
=> Link with libgcc.a first so libgcc_s is only used for its unique
functions (_Unwind_* functions).
Approach 3 is the default for gcc and it's also what clang and clang++ use;
approach 2 is the default for gfortran, g++ and probably other front ends.
This patch makes 3 the default for gfortran. It significantly reduces
the use of libgcc_s. The _Unwind_* functions are also available in the
old base system libgcc_s which means this reduces the need for
-rpath /usr/local/lib/gccN in ports that depend on libraries built with
gfortran. Consider a dependency tree like this:
prog -> libA -> libgcc_s (old base system libgcc_s is fine)
-> libB -> libgcc_s (libB built with gfortran, needs new libgcc_s)
Here prog needs to be linked with -rpath /usr/local/lib/gccN even if it's
a normal C program compiled with clang. Without -rpath it will fail to
start because it loads old libgcc_s first as a dependency of libA and then
it fails to load libB. With this patch libB works with old base system
libgcc_s or may not need libgcc_s at all, so prog does not need to be
linked with -rpath.

+-rpath /usr/local/lib/gccN in ports that depend on libraries built with

+
+Upstream is unlikely accept a patch like this because libgfortran calls
+some _Unwind_* functions and so always needs libgcc_s. Also because
+every Fortran program and library links to libgfortran it makes sense
+that option 2 above is the default. On FreeBSD where clang and GCC
+compiled code can be mixed and where multiple libgcc_s may be installed,
+option 3 is just a lot easier to deal with.
+
+The bug that sparked this is PR 208120 (but note there's a lot of
+misleading information in that bug. CMake is not actually doing
+anything wrong.)
